Might be a stupid question

[roadthumperpatrol]

Did the GQs ever release a bash plate to protect the front draglink genuine or aftermarket? or do I have to make one? only asking as I don't want to hit rock and snap a ball joint

Hey bro

Not sure about a GQ bash plate, but a few of us on here have these to help protect our front pumpkin diff.

Here’s the link. http://www.hardcase4x4.com.au/

I’m one very happy customer, and the dude that makes them is a forum member.

Take care out there.

Not sure.

Here's the original thread... http://www.nissanpatrol.com.au/forums/showthread.php?3470-Gq-gu-bolt-on-no-weld-diff-guards-quot-harris-hardcase-quot

I'm assuming current prices are as per the website link. The original post started in March 2011 (nearly 18 months ago).

Awesome cheers for the help guys ;)

I've been thinking one of these might be good to protect that area:

Exactly what I was thinking of thanks heaps, getting a hardcase pumpkin protector too :)

He is holding off on those Hard noses for a while.. I have hassled him about it a couple of times and he has too much on with other stuff and am not sure if he was not 100% happy with design.

I am waiting for the time when he does start up again on them. The diff guards are awsome!!!

[roadthumperpatrol]

Damn already had my heart set on getting one on by the weekend :( keep me posted if you hear anything!

I'm assuming he is referring to what people design for our 4b's

FWIW I got a HH pumpkin protector and a bushskinz bash plate. Very happy with the combo. It makes me wish I could do stuff with metal. The possibilities are endless.

I got a Hardcase diff protector at Easter but it was one of the last around apparently, 'Hekarwe' brought it down to Sydney for me on a visit, I was told then he was just to busy, I love it & want one for my GU now
